The following map shows all buildable area for attached and detached ADUs in East Palo Alto.
- Hover over parcels to see addresses. Existing buildings and buildable area are only mapped for residential parcels.
- Hover over existing buildings to see the existing gross building sqft.
- The green region is detached ADU buildable area. It’s 4ft from side/rear, 6ft from existing buildings, no closer to the street than the existing building, and can fit at least an 8ft x 20ft structure. Hover over the green area to see the maximum detached ADU that can be built on the green area of the parcel. This is capped at 1,200 sqft per state regulations, even if the green space is much larger.
- The yellow region (including green) is attached ADU buildable area. It doesn’t have the 6ft setback from existing buildings. Hover over the yellow area to see the maximum attached ADU that can be built on the parcel. This is capped at 50% of existing gross building sqft or 1,200 sqft.
- This Drive folder has the raw data (including owner names and many Assessor building characteristics) in CSV form, as well as shapefile versions based on parcel geometry, building geometry, and attached/detached buildable area geometries.
- More information about the methodology and data sources will be prepared in an Appendix soon.
